This could be a dumb question, but anyway...
Why is it critical to orient the Gri Gri in this way? I have never used one so I don't have a good sense of under what conditions they lock or do not.
Without actually taking real falls, the cinch _seems_ to lock well under any fall scenario (head up/down) without the need for a chest harness. I'm tinkering with Faders Sum at the moment for use in TR and rope solo and as far as I can work out it should be good too without a system to orient it. Bomber or Eduardo, please let me know if you think I'm about to kill myself... |
